Why don’t you try this:
<?php echo tribe_get_start_date($post->ID, false, ‘M j,Y’); ?>
Let me know if it doesn’t work?
Yes that is the line of code I have been trying to use.
<?php
$args=array(
'post_type' => 'tribe_events',
'meta_key' => 'wpcf-featured',
'meta_value' => '1',
'posts_per_page' => 3
);
//EventStartDate
//EventEndDate
query_posts($args);
while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
<?php
//print_r($post);
$sd = tribe_get_start_date($post->ID, false, 'M j, Y');
$ed = tribe_get_end_date($post->ID, false, 'M j, Y');
if($ed == $ed){
// single day event
$timestamp = strtotime($ed);
$date = date('F j, Y', $timestamp);
}
<?php $feat_excerpt = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'wpcf-featured-excerpt', true); ?>
<div class="swiper-slide">
<div class="img-container">
<img class="bg-image" src="<?php print wp_get_attachment_url( get_post_thumbnail_id($id) ); ?>" />
</div>
<div class="text-box">
<div class="date"><?php echo $sd; echo " - ".$ed; ?></div>
<?php the_title(); ?>
<p><?php print $feat_excerpt; ?></p>
<br><a class="readmore" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">Read ></a>
</div>
</div>
<?php
endwhile;
?>
The problem is in the EVENTS section mid page on this site: http://ddp.constructorinteractive.com/
I have also tried to use ‘<?php echo tribe_events_event_schedule_details() ?>’
but it is still returning the event start date as today’s date
I would like to suggest you don’t use wp_query . here is the simple snippet that I have made by my own.
<?php
global $post;
$all_events = tribe_get_events(array(
‘eventDisplay’=>’all’,
‘posts_per_page’=>1,
‘tax_query’=> array(
array(
‘taxonomy’ => ‘tribe_events_cat’,
‘field’ => ‘slug’,
‘terms’ => ‘call-for-scores’
)
)
));
foreach($all_events as $post) {
setup_postdata($post);
$thumb = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID), ‘full’ );
$url = $thumb[‘0’];
?>
<div class=”bigBox2″>
<img src=”<?php echo $url;?>”>
<div class=”bigDate”>
<span class=”Date”><?php echo tribe_get_start_date($post->ID, false, ‘j’); ?></span>
<span class=”Date2″><?php echo tribe_get_start_date($post->ID, false, ‘M Y’); ?></span>
</div>
</div>
<?php } wp_reset_query(); ?>
Let me know if it works for you?
Hi, thanks this worked and really helped me troubleshoot the problem. I think it was in the syntax of the meta_query:
'meta_query' => array(
array(
'key' => 'wpcf-featured',
'value' => 2
)
)
Got everything working now. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for helping out sudhanshudubey!
@coexsystem, I’m glad you got things working 🙂
This has been resolved, but I ran into the same issue today and wanted to share the solution in case anyone else needed it. I had to break out the meta query and the events tax query for it to recognize both – otherwise I’d lose filtering by either the meta information (in my case, a pods relationship field) or the tribe events information (the date was showing up as the current date instead of the start date):
$postid = get_the_ID();
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'tribe_events',
'post_status' => 'publish',
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'orderby' => 'date',
'order' => 'asc', 'paged',
'eventDisplay'=>'upcoming',
'tax_query' => array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'tribe_events_cat',
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => array(
'slug-one', 'slug-two'
),
)
),
'meta_query' => array(
array(
'key' => 'pods_relationship_field',
'value' => $postid, // this was just to get the current page id to use as the meta_value
'compare' => '=',
)
)
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
